Delaying wudhu due to feeling shy
Question
I am in a state of ritual impurity and water is available, but I am unable to perform ablution due to shyness and lack of time.
Answer
This is not a valid excuse to delay making wudu and performing your salaah on time. If you delay and make the salaah qadha, you will be sinful.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
